WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
The 2023 Siena opens with dried cranberry, figs, allspice, cream soda, and a hint of bacon. The medium-bodied palate is underlined by bold, juicy plum flavors, strawberry and toasted hazelnut.
Siena pairs perfectly with savory Italian food, like pasta with flavorful tomato sauces or pizza. Siena is also delicious with dishes like chicken cacciatore, duck salad with raspberries or oranges, or simply prosciutto on crostini.
TASTING NOTES:
A juicy, everyday wine driven by red fruit, showing bright cherries, black licorice and some chalky minerality. Light- to medium-bodied, this is easygoing, balanced and refreshing. A good value.
